Sadio Mane has been declared fit for Senegal’s Africa Cup ofquarter-final against Equatorial Guinea in Yaounde on Sunday, his country’s football federation said, days after suffering a head knock that saw him taken to hospital., the Liverpool star clashed heads with the opposing goalkeeper as Senegal beat the Cape Verde Islands in Tuesday’s last-16 clash in Bafoussam and was forced to leave the field, looking groggy and with swelling on the side of his face.

“All the symptoms he had on the pitch are gone. His condition requires fairly close monitoring. Everything is normal on the X-ray,” the doctor said in a statement released by the Senegalese federation. Mane, The reigning African Footballer of the Year, posted a picture of himself on social media with the caption “recovering”.
